<jats:p>Mr. Blix’s figures indicating that it is safer to be a soldier than a civilian are more than borne out by the irony of Mr. Aldrich’s observation with regard to the treatment of captured guerillas as if they were prisoners of war. It seems to me that we are returning to an age of chivalry where soldiers are treated a lot better than civilians even if those soldiers happen to be concealing their weapons, bearing no visible signs, and are captured while shooting at you. You may remember that the age of chivalry was an age of caste; you were very nice to the soldiers but not so nice to the peasants. That is very much what seems to be happening today.</jats:p>
